Chapter 7: The Face Under the Mask
Chapter 7: The Face Under the Mask
The castle on the top of the hill is getting closer and closer, Sun Yang saw the shadow of a crowd on a round platform in the castle, it seems that it should be the elves who came to meet them, sure enough, where did Michael land with the two of them, the white wings shook slightly, and the three of them fell to the ground smoothly, at this time Sun Yang saw the appearance of these elves clearly, and they looked no different from normal humans on the outside, but the long pointed ears and fusiform pupils were more special.
"This... Could this be the legendary elf?" Sun Yang was very excited, Yin Mo tugged at the corner of his clothes to signal him to be quiet, and Sun Yang would stop his mouth immediately. Michael looked at him and said nothing.
"Presumably, a few of them are the guests mentioned by the Elf King, right?" a person standing in front of Michael asked politely, "Yes, I am Michael, the Archangel of the Protoss, this is Liu Yu, the Red King of the Alien Race, and this is Yin Moran, the King of White, we were invited by the Elf King to come to the memorial... When Michael introduced the Red King, he noticed that the faces of everyone present had changed, and of course he knew why there was such a reaction. "Oh... Profound... It turned out to be Lord Michael, and . . . Be... It's like this, it's still some time before the festival begins, please... Please come with me back to the main hall and wait. The man stammered. "Okay, I'm tired. Michael saluted.
The elves led the way in front, Michael and the others followed, Sun Yang saw that there were many soldiers in armor under the castle, they all stood straight, and there would be patrolling teams beside them, with a magnificent and extraordinary bearing. Sun Yang thought about it, although Michael had told him not to talk casually before, but the curiosity in his heart still couldn't be suppressed, "That... I want to ask, why is the place where you live on such an island suspended in the air?" Sun Yang suddenly asked, the marching elves stopped at this question, turned their heads and stared at him, Sun Yang immediately thought that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately stopped, Yin Moran immediately played a round: "Hug ,,, sorry, he... He doesn't speak, so if you're offended, please do more... Excuse me... Yin Moran smiled awkwardly and pinched Sun Yang: "Didn't you tell you not to talk casually?!" "I'm sorry... Sun Yang lowered his head.
The elves did not delay with him so much, but continued to lead the way, the castle was far larger than expected, and the group walked for more than ten minutes and finally came to the so-called main hall. This is an empty circular space, the blue gold-patterned stone pillars standing on both sides glow faintly fluorescent, making the whole hall look very quiet, and the red and gold-rimmed carpet in the center of the hall continues to the front of the stone chair, "so magnificent... Not only did Sun Yang sigh, but the top of the main hall was an unknown ball of light, unpredictable and colorful.
What surprised Sun Yang even more was that behind the stone chair stood a huge organ, each flute like the palm of the devil's hand. "Please wait a little longer, the Elven King is changing his clothes, and we will send someone to pick you up when the festival begins. After the leading elf finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and five little girls in white gauze flew in from outside the door, and the little girls flapped their wings like dragonflies behind them, and held tea sets and snacks in their hands, and the little girls propped up the table on the ground, put the refreshments on it, poured the tea and left.
"What the hell is this place? How do you feel that they are so unfriendly... Sun Yang asked, "I can't tell you about this for a while... Yin Moran said helplessly, "This is the world of elves, since the world where the elves live on the world tree suffered a disaster, they have come to the human world, but the pollution caused by human civilization has made the life of the elves very difficult, so the elf king has created such a space in the alien space with the help of the power of his own space creation, saying that the world is not a world, saying that it is space, but it cannot be regarded as space, after all, you have to go through the space crack to come here." Michael took a sip from the teacup on the table.
"The Elven King seems to be very powerful, and he was able to create such a place... Sun Yang looked around. "The power of the elves is far more powerful than you think, don't talk about this, if Yin Moran hadn't relieved you just now, you might be in trouble, remember, you must not talk nonsense next. Michael said. "Will they embarrass him at the time of the memorial service? Yin Moran was very worried, Sun Yang was not Liu Yu, if he was really embarrassed, Sun Yang, who was an ordinary person, would die at any time. "I don't think so, after all, this time the Elf King personally invited us here, and he has already said that he just wants Liu Yu to express his repentance, take responsibility for what he has committed, and be embarrassed... No way... Michael's tone was strange, as if he wasn't sure about it.
At this time, a man dressed in a splendid costume sat on the highest seat, his figure obscured by a white and gold robe. Looking at the crowd dancing in the center of the altar, he held the wine glass in his hand and shook it gently, "Report to the Elf King, Liu Yu and they are here, are we... A person ran next to the man, it was the elf who had just led the way for Michael and the others, "I know, go and invite them over, remember, see what is happening, don't hurt others." The man took a sip from his glass. "Understood. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, the memorial service has begun, and the Elf King has entrusted us to take you over... "It's the guide just now," Okay... As soon as Michael agreed, who knew that his body would not obey the call in the next second, "This... What's going on?!" Michael felt that his body was paralyzed and unconscious, and Yin Moran also felt it. Not to mention Sun Yang.
"You ... What do you mean by this, and you actually poisoned the tea?!" Michael was furious, and led the wayman to bend down and salute: "Sorry Lord Michael, this is the order of the Elf King, and we are also acting on orders, offended. The man waved his hand and asked Yin Moran and Michael to be taken down. Only Sun Yang remains. "Come on, tie him up and take him away!" said Sun Yang, who received a blow to the head and then lost consciousness. Before he fell unconscious, he saw several men in armor approaching him with ropes. "This... In the end ... Sun Yang's eyes were dark and he fell into a coma.
Liu Yu has lived here for several days, and every day Annis will find all kinds of opportunities to recall the past events with Liu Yu, which not only does not make him remember, but arouses Liu Yu's suspicions. He played with Duras's feathers in his hand and sat in the living room thinking about something. Annis seems to have gone out with something, and only Liu Yu and other servants are left here. Liu Yu got up from the sofa and walked to the window, the window was still white, since he lived here, Liu Yu would look at the scene outside the window every day, but he didn't get what he wanted, the white scene made him upset, threw away the feathers in his hand, and walked towards the stairs. Thinking made his head a little dizzy, and he needed to go back to the house and rest.
Upstairs, Liu Yu was just about to open his door, suddenly he hesitated, his eyes slowly turned to the door at the end of the corridor, it was strange, Liu Yu didn't know why, from the time he lived to the present, except when he first came, he never entered the room at the end of the corridor, he still vaguely remembered that the back of the door seemed to be an abandoned storage room, there was a mirror in it, and Annis came out of that mirror. Curiosity prompted him to walk towards the door, wanting to see what was now behind it. Liu Yu gently opened the door, squeak... The wooden door made a screeching sound.
Whoa... Liu Yu stood at the door and looked at the scene in the room, the dilapidated storage room had been transformed into a tidy bedroom when Annis appeared, the windows were open, and the wind blew the curtains and swayed, making a trembling sound.
Unconsciously stepped into this room, and suddenly his head began to ache sharply again, boom! Liu Yu knelt on the ground with his head covered with his hands, "Ah... This... My head... Liu Yu's headache became more and more intense, and even his vision became blurred, at this time a picture flashed in his mind, he saw Annis, Anis took off the mask on his face, revealing the face that had been hidden behind the mask, it turned out to be pitch black, there was nothing at all, Liu Yu had all kinds of conjectures, guessing what the face behind the mask looked like, what expression, but this picture undoubtedly gave Liu Yu a resounding slap, there was nothing behind the mask.
Then Annis took off his hat and untied his clothes, and what Liu Yu saw was not a naked body, but a pitch-black phantom, the black shadow was like the original falling sky, with no body at all, except that he could vaguely identify the human form. Next to Annis, there was a mirror standing against the wall, and the black shadow was twisted and drifted towards the mirror, Liu Yu's eyes widened, and he watched the phantom drift into the mirror.
Suddenly, Liu Yu opened his eyes and found that he was lying on a bed, at this time the door opened, and Annisy walked in from outside the door, "Are you okay?" I heard the servant say that you fainted? , can I see your face?" Liu Yu suddenly asked, and Annis was also very surprised, "This... Why did you suddenly remember to come to see my face?" Anis was a little uncomfortable, Liu Yu noticed something, and suddenly he reached out and ripped off Annis's mask, but he was shocked to find that under the mask on Annis's face, it turned out to be a white and pure face, but there was a long plucking mark on the face, which made people really distressed. Liu Yu was stunned with the mask. Annis reached out and took the mask in Liu Yu's hand, "Did it scare you?" Annis put the mask on from the beginning, "No... No, I ... I don't know, I thought... I'm so sorry... Liu Yu was ashamed of what he had done, "It's okay, you're just curious... I'll go to the kitchen and explain the dinner, you can rest for a while, and I'll call someone to call you when dinner is ready. Annis stood up and walked out. Liu Yu said "um".
Annis walked and closed the door, and a servant stood outside the door, "Show him and don't let him go any closer to the house." After saying that, Annis took off her mask again, and ripped off the face under the mask, revealing a real face like a black void.
